Mini Brownie Trifles

Ingredients

• As seen on WKTV NEWSChannel 2
• 1 (19- to -22 ounce) package brownie mix
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• 2 tablespoons brewed coffee
• 2 tablespoons water
• 2 eggs
• 1 (4-serving size) package chocolate instant pudding and pie filling mix
• 2 cups milk
• 2 tablespoons vanilla instant pudding and pie filling mix (from a 4-serving size package)
• 1 3/4 cups whipping (or heavy) cream
• Whipped cream (optional)
• Chocolate shavings (optional)
• Fresh raspberries (optional)
• Mint leaves (optional)

Instructions

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking pan. In a large bowl, combine brownie mix, vegetable oil, coffee, water, and eggs. Stir with a wooden spoon until mixed. Spread batter into prepared pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack; cut about 3/4 of the brownie into 1-inch pieces.
• Meanwhile, prepare chocolate pudding mix as directed on package for pudding, using milk; cover and refrigerate. In a large bowl, combine vanilla pudding mix and whipping cream. Beat with an electric mixer until creamy; cover and refrigerate. In 6 miniature trifle dishes, arrange 7 of the brownies in the bottom and up the sides of the dishes; cover with chocolate pudding. Arrange 5 of the brownies in similar style; top with the whipped cream mixture. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours; top with whipped cream and chocolate shavings before serving, if desired. Garnish with fresh raspberries and mint leaves, if desired. Makes 6 miniature trifles (12 servings).
